A chord of a circle is equal to the radius of the circle. Find the angle subtended by the chord at a point on the minor arc and also at a point on the major arc.
<hr />∵ OA = OB = AB I Given
∴ ∆OAB is equilateral.
∴ ∠AOB = 60°
| The angle subtended by an arc at the centre is double the angle subtended by it at any point on the remaining part of the circle.
Now, ∵ ADBC is a cyclic quadrilateral.
∴ ∠ADB + ∠ACB = 180°
| The sum of either pair of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180°
⇒ ∠ADB+ 30°= 180°
⇒ ∠ADB = 180° - 30°
⇒ ∠ADB = 150°.

Given,
AB is equal to the radius of the circle.
In △OAB,
OA=OB=AB= radius of the circle.
Thus, △OAB is an equilateral triangle.
∠AOC=60°
Also, ∠ACB=21∠AOB=21×60°=30°
ACBD is a cyclic quadrilateral,
∠ACB+∠ADB=180° ∣ Opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral
⇒∠ADB=180°−30°=150°
Thus, angle subtend by the chord at a point on the minor arc and also at a point on the major arc are 150° and 30° respectively.
